Ark: Survival Evolved Upcoming Release

ARK: Survival Evolved has been confirmed for an official release date of August 8th 2017. The open world survival game has been highly anticipated by fans. Set on a stranded island inhabited by dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals, ARK is a refreshing take on the survival game genre.

This is a game where you don’t ride a horse, you ride a T-Rex.. but you can also ride a horse. You can fly across beautiful landscapes on the back of a dragon and build huge bases to protect what’s yours. There are currently four expansions and 143 creatures in the game with more to come soon.

Here’s a quick snapshot of the history of the development and future direction of ARK: Survival Evolved in a nice little infographic:
